"This is why some people are as strong as Emperor Wu even though they have reached the same level. This is the reason."
Bridge?
When Xiao Chen heard such a wondrous explanation, he could not help but feel astonished. The old man's words had three meanings. Using the bridge as an example, he explained all his problems clearly.
There was a huge chasm between a great grandmaster-level Martial Sage and Emperor Wu. If one could sense the existence of the chasm and reach a dead end, the one qualified to build the bridge would be the Blue Robed Emperor.
Otherwise, one would be a great grandmaster-level Martial Sage, not the Blue Robed Emperor.
After building the bridge and crossing the chasm, one would be able to remove the word "Zhun" and be called Emperor Wu.
Xiao Chen used this to evaluate himself and discovered that he could not sense the existence of the chasm at all. He was not qualified to build the bridge at all.
"With your current cultivation, you should be able to barely see the chasm, right?" Elder Qin asked with a smile.
Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "I can't see it. I can't feel it at all."
When Elder Qin heard this, his expression could not help but change slightly. He sized up Xiao Chen and said, "How can that be? Although you are a newly advanced great grandmaster-level Martial Sage, your Heavenly Sage Laws are vast and dense. Furthermore, they have already reached the limits of grandmaster-level Martial Sages. With more than five thousand rings, how can you not feel it at all? "
Indeed, Xiao Chen could not feel it at all. He did not even know how far he was from the chasm.
After thinking for a while, Elder Qin smiled and said, "It should have something to do with your Cultivation Technique. This is a good thing. The more great grandmaster-level Martial Sages accumulate, the more extraordinary the bridge they build will be."
Putting this aside for now, Xiao Chen continued asking, "What are the materials for building the bridge? How do you differentiate between good and bad?"
Elder Qin said, "Cultivation is the foundation. The Heavenly Sage Laws are definitely the main material. The stronger the Heavenly Sage Laws are, the denser they are. They might even be able to transform into dragons or phoenixes. This is equivalent to using an Epic grade material to build the bridge."
"Heavenly Sage Laws can take form?"
This was the first time Xiao Chen had heard of such a thing. None of the great grandmasters he had met had been able to do this.
"Of course they can. However, from ancient times until now, those who are able to shapeshift are as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns. Only those who are extremely talented can shapeshift."
When he spoke up to here, Elder Qin came to a sudden understanding and said, "I know why you haven't sensed the existence of the chasm in the heavens and the earth even though your cultivation is so high."
"Transformation. The answer is transformation. Now is the age of geniuses. All of you outstanding talents will definitely be able to transform. Once you succeed, you will be able to sense the chasm between heaven and earth."
"Transformation? Elder Qin, do you know how to transform? "
Hearing Elder Qin's explanation, Xiao Chen was overjoyed and asked expectantly.
Elder Qin smiled and said, "I don't know how to transform. However, according to the information I have, transformation is something that happens naturally and without a teacher.
"If you want to avoid taking a detour, see if you can search for it in the Remnant of an ancient Prime. During the Ancient Era, countless experts were able to make their Heavenly Sage Laws take form."
Achieving naturally and without a teacher was too vague. It was better to find the secret manuals of the predecessors and point out the direction.
After Xiao Chen settled down on Heavenly Star Island, he would send people to ask around about this, to see if he could find the secret manuals for transformation in places like auctions and markets.
"Boom!"
Just as the two were chatting happily, the warship suddenly trembled intensely. Xiao Chen and Elder Qin remained as unmoving as a mountain. However, the decorations in the room shattered.
Given the weight of the Dragon's Gate's warship and its formations, regular winds and waves would not be able to shake it.
Xiao Chen's expression did not change. He stood up and said, "I'll go and see what's going on. If there are any problems that I cannot resolve, I hope that Elder Qin will be able to help."
"Go, then. This old man will do his best." Elder Qin showed a grave expression and did not delay.
"Little Brother Xiao Chen, something happened. We are surrounded by the Xuanshui Sect's people."
Right after Xiao Chen left the recuperation room, Kim Tae-ho rushed over anxiously with a flustered expression.
The Xuanshui Sect was at the periphery of the Heavenly Starry Ocean. That meant that the Dragon's Gate's warship had already left the Chaotic Demonic Sea. If they headed west, they would reach Heavenly Star Island in about a month.
Xiao Chen had once killed a disciple of the Xuanshui Sect's Sect Master in front of him. If he passed by here, he would definitely be intercepted by the other party.
However, Xiao Chen did not panic at all. Although the Xuanshui Sect was not one of the Nine Ranks of the Great Families, it was the weakest of the Nine Ranks of the Great Families. It could not be compared to a large sect like the Haotian Sect.
This place was not too far from the Kunlun Continent. The Thunder King's name still had some deterrence. Xiao Chen did not think that the other party would send out an expert at the level of the Blue Robed Emperor.
As long as the other party did not send out an expert at the level of the Blue Robed Emperor, Xiao Chen would have a way to deal with them.
Even if the other party was bold enough to send out an expert, Xiao Chen would not fear them. After all, there was still Elder Qin on the warship.
Given the other party's strength, they could at most send out a Blue Robed Emperor.
Seeing Xiao Chen's calm expression, Kim Tae-ho calmed down as well.
Quickly arriving on the deck, Xiao Chen looked around. A King Grade warship led ten Sage Grade warships to surround the Dragon's Gate's warship.
Waves surged endlessly on the surface of the sea. There were still some energy ripples in the air that had not dissipated yet.
When Xiao Chen saw this situation, he felt even more assured. The other party must have used the Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons to attack the Dragon's Gate's warship. However, it did not achieve the effect that they wanted.
Aside from some intense shaking, the Dragon's Gate's warship did not suffer any damage.
"Call the Blue Dragon King, Xiao Chen, out and hand over all the congratulatory gifts he received at the King conferral ceremony. My Xuanshui Sect will not make things difficult for you."
An ancient mirror hovered above Yao Chen's head as he shouted from the other party's King Grade warship.
Jin Lin and the others had already gathered on the deck long ago, waiting in formation. Lan Shaobai stood at the very front and smiled. "You really boast shamelessly. The warship under my feet is the Dragon's Gate's warship. Barring an Emperor Grade warship, no King Grade warship can suppress it."
"If we want to leave, can you stop us? Just an insignificant Xuanshui Sect dares to come and snatch the Blue Dragon King that the Thunder King of the Bushin Palace favors? Yao Chen, where do you get the courage from? "
Xiao Chen stopped. He had not expected Lan Shaobai to be so bold. He decided to wait and see first.
"You have a sharp tongue. Smash this warship. Let's see how he is going to get to Heavenly Star Island!"
When Yao Chen saw Lan Shaobai's unyielding attitude, he could not help but fly into a rage out of humiliation. He ordered the various warships to attack the Dragon's Gate's warship again.
Amid the loud explosions:
Beams of blue energy shot out from the surrounding ships with great momentum, stirring up the waves and causing the water to shoot up into the sky.
The resplendent light was incredibly piercing. If it struck a cultivator, even a grandmaster-level Martial Sage would be severely injured.
"Bang!"
However, an azure-colored protective barrier appeared on the Dragon's Gate's warship. Dragon motifs spread out, blocking the ferocious Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons. Ripples spread out, but the warship remained undamaged.
Yao Chen did not believe it. He continued to give orders to attack the Dragon's Gate's warship. The sound of surging water rang out endlessly, and the light of the protective barrier dimmed.
Xiao Chen took out a hundred Astral Cores and handed them to Kim Tae-ho, telling him to control the warship and replace them with Astral Cores.
The other party's Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons could not break the protective barrier of the Dragon's Gate's warship. As long as there were sufficient Astral Cores, it would not sink.
However, Xiao Chen did not lack Astral Cores.
"Senior Brother Yao Chen, our warship's Astral Cores are almost depleted. This Dragon's Gate's warship is the king of King Grade warships, the king of kings.
There is no way for us to break it, "a person at the side said to Yao Chen with an unsightly expression.
Yao Chen waved his hand to stop. Then, he said angrily, "I'll personally break this protective barrier!"
Xiao Chen held the Profound Water Mirror above his head and soared into the air. Then, he summoned out the Profound River image and quickly flew towards the Dragon's Gate's warship.
Lan Shaobai smiled coldly and said, "You overestimate yourself!"
Xiao Chen pushed off the ground and flew out as well, charging over with a sword in his hand.
This was the first time Xiao Chen saw Lan Shaobai make a move. Lan Shaobai's Movement Technique was extremely strange. It was like he was teleporting. Lan Shaobai flickered in the air, appearing and disappearing unpredictably, executing some kind of instant-kill Sword Technique.
Although Yao Chen summoned out the Emperor Grade Secret Treasure image in the air, he was still no match for Lan Shaobai. The moment the Profound River image appeared, Lan Shaobai chopped it into several pieces.
This caused this powerful Emperor Grade Secret Treasure image to lose its use.
Those few sword strikes were so fast that they left no shadows. When Xiao Chen saw this, his eyes lit up. This seemed to be some kind of Sword Technique that was compatible with the Space Dao.
Xiao Chen's figure moved with the sword, moving at the edge of space. He was truly so fast that he did not leave any traces at all.
After the Profound River Mirror lost its effect, Yao Chen was no match for Lan Shaobai. In less than ten moves, Lan Shaobai sent him flying with one sword strike.
A horrifying wound appeared on Xiao Chen's chest, nearly chopping him in half.
"Lan Shaobai is only one step away from reaching great grandmaster-level Martial Sage. Furthermore, he has the talent of the Asura Race, allowing him to fight above his cultivation and kill an ordinary older-generation great grandmaster-level Martial Sage. "
As Xiao Chen watched the two fight, he quickly came to a conclusion. He had a rough idea of Lan Shaobai's strength.
"Yao Chen, with just this bit of strength, you dare to block the Azure Dragon King's ship? You must be tired of living."
You must be tired of living, "Lan Shaobai said rudely as he stood upright with his sword in hand.
Several of the great grandmaster-level Martial Sages of the Xuanshui Sect on the warship were very timid, not daring to step forward to help.
"First Martial Uncle, are you still not going to make a move?" Yao Chen shouted when he landed on the warship's bow.
"Humph! Useless thing. You cannot even last ten moves. If the Xuanshui Sect lands in your hands, it will really be finished."
A cold snort came from the King Grade warship. Then, an extremely vast aura surged out from the other party's warship.
Winds and clouds stirred in the surroundings, and the seawater churned endlessly. A one-kilometer-tall pillar of water burst out from the surface of the sea, sending waves surging up and down.
It seemed like a storm was approaching. The sky suddenly changed color, and the Dragon's Gate's warship rocked violently in the water.
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "An expert of the Blue Robed Emperor!"
The Xuanshui Sect was really bold to send a bona fide Blue Robed Emperor expert, brazenly trying to snatch Xiao Chen's congratulatory gift.
"Whoosh!"
A figure appeared at lightning speed on the churning sea, where winds and clouds changed. Then, this figure gently sent a palm strike at Lan Shaobai.
When Lan Shaobai saw danger approaching, his figure flashed, and he seemed to vanish into space, vanishing without a trace.
"Chi!"
In the next moment, a cold light flashed. Lan Shaobai suddenly appeared on the left of the Xuanshui Sect's Blue Robed Emperor while holding his sword.
Even Xiao Chen did not see how Lan Shaobai had appeared.
The instant Lan Shaobai appeared, the blue-robed quasi-Emperor of the Profound Water Sect turned around. A strong aura surged out, relying on his advantage in cultivation.
